It treats database dumps as artifacts that can be named, loaded, exported, and inspected from the shell. ### Projektgeschichte The GitHub repository was created in April 2019 and the README frames the tool as MySQL-only for now, with extension points for other database systems left as a possibility. Its first public tags, 1.0 and 1.1, are visible in the official repository tag list. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The upstream README documents Homebrew as the macOS installation path and direct cloning for Linux and other systems. That pattern points to a niche developer-tool audience: people who want a lightweight snapshot workflow around migrations and environment refreshes rather than a full migration framework. ### Wie es verwendet wird A typical db-vcs workflow starts with db init, which creates a .db repository in the project root and records connection details. Users then run commands such as db save, db load, db export, db import, db structure, and db log to move database dumps through development, staging, and local recovery scenarios. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren The package is notable as a Unixy database helper: it wraps mysqldump-style operations in a project repository model, leaves credentials in a predictable ignored file, and exposes everything as simple subcommands. It appeals to package users who prefer shell tools and visible files over a service-backed database workflow. ### Zeitleiste - 2019: Official GitHub repository was created. - 2019: Tag 1.0 appears in the official repository. - 2019: Tag 1.1 appears in the official repository. ### Related projects - db-vcs overlaps with database migration and dump tools, but its README positions it around snapshots, restores, imports, exports, and repository-style history rather than schema-only migration management. ### Quellen - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Nix - db: installed executable or alias match | nixpkgs package indexes: db from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/master/pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix - apk - db - 5.3.28-r7: installed executable or alias match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: db from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | The Berkeley DB embedded database system | https://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html - apk - db-c++ - 5.3.28-r7: installed executable or alias match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: db-c++ from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | C++ binding for libdb | https://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html - apk - db-dev - 5.3.28-r7: installed executable or alias match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: db-dev from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | The Berkeley DB embedded database system (development files) | https://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html - apk - db-doc - 5.3.28-r7: installed executable or alias match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: db-doc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | The Berkeley DB embedded database system (documentation) | https://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html - apk - db-utils - 5.3.28-r7: installed executable or alias match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: db-utils from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Utils for The Berkeley DB embedded database system | https://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html - pacman - db - 6.2.32-4: installed executable or alias match | Arch Linux sync databases: db from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/core/os/x86_64/core.db.tar.gz | The Berkeley DB embedded database system | https://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html - zypper - libdb-4_8 - 4.8.30-48.3: installed executable or alias match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: libdb-4_8 from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Berkeley DB Database Library Version 4.8 | https://oracle.com/technetwork/products/berkeleydb/ ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
